Clan Khakhaiyr
A group of Imperial Aslan who settled on Itasis/Strand (Corridor 1413) after being exiled from the Aslan Hierate. The Khakhaiyr were formerly a pride that had been expelled for "some crime unknown to all but the pride but believed to be some act of treason against the combined Tlaukhu". Members of the pride appealed to the Imperium for asylum and land, and in 1071 Imperial authorities gave them Itasis, which had a small area bordering on habitable.
Itasis has since drawn other Imperialized Aslan. The resulting onworld culture is much closer to the human model than the Aslan. The colonists retain little of the Aslan culture and speak a hybrid Anglic/Trokh. They lack the normal Aslan superior attitude: they are proud, but not overbearing. The original colonists have a lingering hatred for the Tlaukhu because of their exile. In return, they are thought of as non-Aslan "barbarians" by the Aslan Hierate.
